They have the perspective of the investor in mind and not just see the owner as a source of income and how many ways they can create revenue from them.   

I plan to move out of this city in the next 2-3 years, so I don't want to be stuck with a property that I will lose money on by selling in a short period of time and would like a source of passive income, so I am hoping for it to be profitable as a rental property in the future. 

I googled the source and it was an online scam.  

I agree and one source I use is called GetAbstract.

I purchased my first property because I wanted to create another source of income  other than my W2.

Rentometer is alright if you're looking at the outer ends of the spectrum, but they aren't terribly accurate in judging the median.A solid option is to call up property management companies operating in an area and pick their brains.When we're determining median rent for apartments, we'll often call up similar properties in the surrounding area to schedule tours and determine baseline.If you know somebody with access to Costar, that can be a good source as well.

I own a 20-unit complex which is managed by Appfolio, so it distributes the vacancy to various sources.
